+    (description
+     "The standard index of DNA methylation (beta) is computed from methylated
+and unmethylated signal intensities.  Betas calculated from raw signal
+intensities perform well, but using 11 methylomic datasets we demonstrate that
+quantile normalization methods produce marked improvement.  The commonly used
+procedure of normalizing betas is inferior to the separate normalization of M
+and U, and it is also advantageous to normalize Type I and Type II assays
+separately.  This package provides 15 flavours of betas and three performance
+metrics, with methods for objects produced by the @code{methylumi} and
+@code{minfi} packages.")
